III. Hazardous Identification:
Hazard Category:
X Acute Chronic X Fire X Pressure Reactive
Hazardous Identification Information:
Danger: Extremely Flammable. Harmful or Fatal if Swallowed. Eye and Skin Irritant. Content Under Pressure.
Level 3 Aerosol
IV. First Aid Measures:
Route(s) of Entry:
Absorption, Inhalation, and Ingestion.
Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic):
Affects of overexposure are:
Acute: Liquid splashed on eyes and skin can result in discomfort, pain and irritation. Inhalation can cause irritation of the
respiratory tract, dizziness, nausea, headache, loss of coordination and equilibrium, unconsciousness and even death in confined
or poorly ventilated areas. Ingestion may result in irritation of the mouth and GI tract.
Prolonged exposure above the OSHA permissible exposure limit may complicate existing liver and kidney diseases.

Product Name: BATTERY TERMINAL PROTECTOR
MSDS No.: BTP4
Eye Contact: Irritant. Prolonged contact may cause conjunctivitis.
Skin Contact: Irritant. Defatting of tissue, dermatitis may occur.
Inhalation: Irritant to mucous membranes. Repeated exposure may cause narcosis..
Ingestion: HARMFUL OR FATAL IF SWALLOWED. May cause burns to mouth, throat & stomach.
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure:
None Known
Emergency and First Aid Procedures:
Eye Contact: Flush eyes with clean water for 15 minutes while lifting eyelids and get prompt medical attention.
Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water thoroughly. If adverse effects persist, get prompt medical attention. Launder
contaminated clothing before reuse.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If breathing becomes difficult get prompt medical attention.
Ingestion: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING! Call Poison Control Center, physician, or hospital emergency room immediately.
Other Health Warnings:
Vomiting and subsequent aspiration into the lungs may lead to chemical pneumonia and pulmonary edema which is a potentially
fatal condition.
V. Fire Fighting Measures:
Flash Point: < 100掳F Lower Explosive Limit: 1.8 Upper Explosive Limit: 9.5
TCC
F.P. Method:
Fire Extinguishing Media: Water Fog, Foam, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical
Special Fire Fighting Procedures:
Wear self-contained positive pressure breathing apparatus and protective clothes. Cool containers with a water fog. Do not use
forced water stream as this could cause the fire to spread. Use shield to protect from rupturing and venting containers.
Unusual Fire and Explosion:
Contents under pressure. Exposure to temperatures above 120掳 may cause containers to vent, rupture or burst violently.
VI. Accidental Release Measures:
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled:
Eliminate all ignition sources. Persons not wearing protective equipment should be excluded from area of spill until clean-up has
been completed. Dike or contain spill and absorb with inert materials (sand, sawdust, absorbent sweeping compounds, rags,
etc). Using a non-metalic scoop, place contaminated material into an approved chemical waste container. Where possible,
vacuum spilled liquid using an explosion proof vacuum to recover material. Prevent run-off to sewers, streams, or other bodies of
water. If run-off occurs, notify proper authorities as required that a spill has occured.
VII. Handling and Storage:
Precautions to be Taken:
Use with adequate ventilation and proper protective equipment.
Do not use or store near fire, sparks, or open flame. Do not puncture or incinerate container. Exposure to temperatures above
120掳 may cause container to vent, rupture, or burst.
Other Precautions:
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN AND ANIMALS!
VIII. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection:
Ventilation Requirements:
See Section 2 for applicable exposure limits. Use with adequate ventilation. If TLV is exceeded, wear NIOSH approved respirator.
